[Tutorial] Setting up a FREE Instagram bot: instabot.py

Anyone know how to create a followbot which follows a followers users? Ive tried looking everywhere how to code it but it doesnt seem to work. Im trying to code it using github(.)com/LevPasha/Instagram-API-python
 
This solved everything for me, removing the block tags. Of course you have to add the Libs first:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

from instabot import InstaBot

bot = InstaBot(login="***", password="***",
like_per_day=0,
comments_per_day=0,
tag_list=['follow4follow', 'f4f', 'cute'],
max_like_for_one_tag=50,
follow_per_day=300,
follow_time=10*60*60,
unfollow_per_day=300,
unfollow_break_min=15,
unfollow_break_max=30,
log_mod=0)


bot.new_auto_mod()


Of course you can edit the values, remoing the two block tag lines solves it. You don't have to use the one above, just to show as an example on how it's done.
 
for me is given "no module name requests"
 
Thanks OP! this is working perfectly for me after installing python requests. Great way to learn the basics of instagram bots. Opening the readme file with notepad++ is a good explanation on how to use the features. I haven't figured how to follow users faster but to like posts faster just increase the like_per_day to =10000 for example

how did you install the python requests??
 
ive been coding on this bot for a couple months and i managed to make it Read usernames from an excel file, and then Follow + like x2 + comment x2
and it keeps the files updated and works its way through the list!

the original bot just does hashtags

im gonna make it be able to add usernames from the comments on someones page.

i dont think i want to share it though lol, at least im not going to volunteer the code.
there are bugs sometimes and the original version is pretty okay.

So you just wrote all these words to tell us that you made improvements to an open source bot, but are too greedy over petty stuff to open source it?
Mmmkay...
 
im near broke so im a bit paranoid you know?

This is an awesome thread.. I am from a non-tech background and have learnt Python (basic-intermediate) in no time.

This is the kind of content BHW needs more.. People helping other people. Not people being ripped off in the marketplace and being told you cant make your own product.
I would encourage everyone here to learn to code..its actually quite easy.
 
@Rock_Shock I agree. Do you know how to make it not unfollow people it just followed or does it not do that? I can't tell. Also, I checked my IG profiles and the bot hasn't been following the people it says it follows. What gives?
